If there is any kind of rules that are simple and clear, but can lead to endless variations, it would be the rules of chess.
When Liu Yuan heard the strict requirements of the Spiritual Contract Technique, he immediately thought of this. Isn't there a perfect master-slave relationship between the pawn and the boss? If you need to strengthen it from time to time, then play more chess.
He cut out two small parts from the spirit body and turned them into aura chess pieces. They were used as veteran generals and old commanders. He then selected a few grouper ants and classified them into chariots, horses, cannons, and soldiers. Then he drew the ground to form a chessboard. He commanded them to fight.
The spiritual contract technique was activated, and each piece on the chessboard was connected to the line of laws invisible to the naked eye, which converged on the general and the commander, and then connected to Liu Yuan.
Since the fusion of spiritual seeds, Liu Yuan's memory has also improved. He recalled the chess records he had studied and still remembered every move.
The grouper ant chess pieces moved on the chessboard, and Liu Yuan shared the cause and effect deduction of each step with all the grouper ants through the connected lines. Whenever a wonderful chess move appears, a spot of light lights up on the colorful body of the grouper ant, as if resonating with the wisdom in the chess record.
Protecting one's own veteran and killing the opponent's veteran is the most basic rule in the world of chess. Every step is directly or indirectly intended to achieve this goal. There are offense and defense, continuous elimination and attack, luring the enemy to set up an ambush, and taking one step. Of course, the grouper ants cannot understand it if they deduct four or five steps at a time. But they can echo and resonate, which is very magical. It seems that the soul that has been separated from itself is also awakening.
After playing a game of chess and putting away the thread of the spiritual contract, Liu Yuan felt that his connection with the grouper ants had indeed been strengthened. Moreover, Liu Yuan also vaguely felt that this spiritual contract technique should be more than that simple, and there seemed to be more changes, but he still only had a vague feeling.
Liu Yuan is not in a hurry to explore. As he becomes more proficient in the spirit contract technique, this feeling is getting stronger and stronger. One day, the truth will eventually come to light.
Now, he has more urgent things to do.
There are only 8,000 contribution points left before he can qualify for the spiritual pool. He must seize the time and sprint.
In fact, eight thousand is not a small amount. Mu Bingcheng, who was originally ranked first, only accumulated eight thousand contributions.
He turned his attention to the task he had planned to complete: the trial cave mine tunnel.
After some inquiries in Fangshi, he found out that the latest release of the new mining tunnel was two months ago.
This is not good news. In two months, the disciples were enough to turn the mine tunnels upside down. What is left are mostly deeper and further twists and turns of the mine tunnels, and they are extremely cold. The Yin beasts there are naturally more powerful. , usually no one dares to go down.
Cold-proof elixirs were still scarce in the market, so Liu Yuan simply left without plucking any money and headed towards the third beam.
Deep valley and cold pool.
Traces of the previous battle can still be seen on the stone wall next to the inlet. The two ice claws blocked by Ren Tianqing changed their directions and carved two deep long grooves on the stone wall. One can imagine how seriously Liu Yuan was injured back then.
When he came to the pond for the third time, Liu Yuan naturally thought of Ren Tianqing, but he didn't know what she looked like because Liu Yuan, who was seriously injured at that time, had already fainted.
Ren Jingzong asked him not to care about her anymore. Since the Yuan Ying stage seniors had said so, Liu Yuan would certainly not have any inappropriate thoughts. She just said that she was from the same lineage of the Ren family and Ren Jingzong had some protection for her.
Hearing that Ren Tianqing entered the main peak directly without participating in the selection, Liu Yuan couldn't help but have a thought.
I remember your voice. During this selection, I, Liu Yuan, will definitely enter the main peak to look for you, just to make things clear, not to take revenge.
After all, Liu Yuan didn't hate her. Although he was seriously injured for a year, it was a blessing in disguise.
Mu Shaohong was actually right. During the year he was in coma, he was really training.
Liu Yuan smiled confidently and cast spells again and again to summon various ant colonies. The dense ant colonies covered the shore in an instant.
Each legion was led by grouper ants. Under Liu Yuan's instructions, although their bodies were stiff from the cold, they jumped into the cold pool without hesitation.
I saw the ants rushing one after another, like a large black cloud disappearing into the water.
In the extremely cold pool water, except for the huge bull ants, which could still struggle a bit, the other ants were quickly frozen to death, and before long they were floating on the water in patches, motionless.
The performance of grouper ants is much better. The nine-colored light spots on their bodies circulate rapidly the moment they touch the water. Eight of the nine colors suddenly disappear, leaving only one:
blue.
The grouper ants that turned blue seemed to be more resistant to freezing. They were suspended on the water and their movements were basically unaffected.
They are indeed my direct troops, Liu Yuan sighed in his heart, he did not expect this. His original reliance was another move.
The other ants that were frozen to death were summoned back to the Tianji Tu. Liu Yuan closed his eyes and kneaded the secrets, and used the techniques he had learned over the past year:
The Nine Turns of Resurrection.
A moment later, the same group of ants came out of the Tianji Diagram again. The difference from the past is that this time it is not randomly summoned, but the same batch of ants that were frozen to death were resurrected.
This was one of the results of his special training while in a coma. Combining the effects of the Nine Turns of Resurrection Pill and other recovery pills, he used Ren Jingzong's acupoint sealing to release the power of the medicine bit by bit. After a year-long exploration, and after initially understanding the way of life and death, he finally gathered the sand into a tower, successfully cracked the power of resurrection, and learned to transform and apply it.
Resurrecting existing ants saves half the mental energy and spiritual power than summoning new ones. In this way, his ant army is more unafraid of sacrifice.
And the most critical point is that the same batch of ants can reincarnate continuously from now on, becoming almost immortal, and they can continue to grow and learn. It's really exciting.
Summoned creatures have been proven to be able to bring the dead back to life, but Liu Yuan has not yet experimented with the power of reanimation on monks.
It is foreseeable that the Nine Revolutions Resurrection Pill cannot completely reverse time and space and heal the dead. The same principle applies to resurrecting the soul. It can only revive people who are dying, just like Liu Yuan who was seriously injured. When Liu Yuan was performing the technique, he also vaguely felt that if the object to be resurrected was a real monk, then it would not only be effective by consuming spiritual thoughts and spiritual power, but also a trace of the power of law. Just like the rules he understood from the Nine Turns of Resurrection Pill.
It would be much easier if he was not in a near-death state. He was confident that his resurrection technique could be used as a universal recovery technique. It only needed to consume some spiritual thoughts and spiritual power, and it would be better than any healing medicine.
In this way, the ants that have experienced reincarnation re-enter the cold pool, and the resurrecting technique also has a certain degree of recovery ability, which slightly improves the anti-freeze ability of the ants that enter the pool for the second time. After a short period of resistance, they are transformed again.
In this cycle of life and death, Liu Yuan's ants gradually changed, and they persisted longer and longer. Some even learned to swim.
Only the grouper ants have not lost their numbers from beginning to end. The blue light spots on their bodies seem to have the effect of resisting cold. Even the ordinary ants close to the blue light are more cold-resistant.
After training the ants for two consecutive days, all types of ants were able to move freely in extremely cloudy environments. Liu Yuan also consumed four rounds of spiritual energy. Every time he used the magic to recover, the recovery speed of the magic also increased several times due to the improvement of his spiritual level.
Everything is ready now. Liu Yuan reorganized the ants. After many rounds of baptism in the cold pool, they seemed to be completely new, and even their temperament became colder and more dangerous.
They can't wait to join the battle.
Next stop.
Trial Cave.
